She came from a working class family in Hanover. When she was twenty her brother William asked her to come Bath, because he liked her and he needed a housekeeper. William was a fine musician and conductor and he earned his living as a chorus director. Thanks to her sister lessons she attracted attention as a soprano in Bath. William spent a lot of time on his hobby, astronomy. He became well known as a telescope maker and with the support of King George III he was able to give up music and concentrate on telescopes and astronomy. When Caroline was 32 she had outgrown her housekeeping duties and started helping William with his work. She started looking for comets on her own and she also calculated the positions of objects by her brother and herself. In 1783 she discovered three nebulae. William's reputation grew after he discovered the planet Uranus. He was appointed court astronomer and Caroline became a professional astronomer as well: she received 50 pounds annually for her work. While William was on leave to Germany Caroline discovered a comet herself. They wrked together for several years, but after her brother married he spent most of his time differently. Caroline regretted this, but carried on at the observatory. She discovered several other comets. After William died in 1822 she gave up astronomy and returned to Hanover.

Caroline Herschel Caroline Herschel was the daughter of Isaac Herschel and Anna Ilse Moritzen. She was sister of William Herschel and the aunt of John Herschel. Caroline's father Isaac was an oboist in the Hanovarian Foot Guards and rose to become the bandmaster. Although a man with no formal education, he tried hard to give his four sons and two daughters a good education. His interests in music, philosophy and astronomy led to lively conversations in their home but Caroline's mother disapproved of learning in general and although she reluctantly accepted that her four sons should have some education, she strongly opposed her daughters doing anything other than the household chores. Caroline Herschel's four brothers were all brought up to be musicians while Caroline showed an enthusiasm for knowledge which her father tried to satisfy despite all her mother's efforts to ensure that she did nothing but household tasks. Caroline recalled that her father took her [4]: ... on a clear frosty night into the street, to make me acquainted with several of the beautiful constellations, after we had been gazing at a comet which was then visible. Caroline could never have thought in her wildest dreams that one day she would make a major contribution to the study of comets.

Herschel, Caroline Lucretia Caroline Lucretia Herschel was born in Hannover, Germany, on March 16, 1750. Her father died when she was 17, so she went to Bath to live with and take care of her brother, William. When William would conduct choirs or bands, Caroline would be singing in the choir. When William was studying Algebra and Geometry, Caroline would be learning Algebra and Geometry at his side. Caroline and William shared a very close relationship. Another one of William's odd jobs was the making of telescopes, some that he would use to observe celestial bodies. It was during this period that Caroline began to take an interest in astronomy. Then, in 1781, William discovered the planet now known as Uranus, and in 1785, they moved to Windsor. There, Caroline was given a telescope by her brother, and she spent hours on end searching the skies for flying comets. In 1786, Caroline and William moved to the "Observatory House", the place where Caroline spotted her first comet, sometimes called "first lady's comet." Also in this year, William got married, and this dramatically changed Caroline's lifestyle, although she never wavered from astronomy.

Caroline in ihren Erinnerungen: "Mein Vater war ein großer Bewunderer der Astronomie und besaß einige Kenntnisse in der Wissenschaft. Ich erinnere mich, daß er mich in einer kalten Nacht auf die Straße führte, um mich mit einigen unserer schönsten Sternbilder bekannt zu machen, nachdem wir vorher einen Kometen, der eben sichtbar war, beobachtet hatten."

Mary Wigman Women of Hanover: Caroline Herschel born March 16, 1750 in Hannover died January 9, 1848 in Hannover German astronomer Caroline Lucretia Herschel was the first woman to receive full recognition in the field of astronomy. She grew up in Hanover, the only girl among five surviving children of the military musician Isaak Herschel and his wife Anna Ilse Herschel. Against the wishes of her mother, who would have preferred her to be a seamstress, Caroline, like her brothers, received musical training and became a concert singer. When she was 22 she followed her brother Friedrich Wilhelm Herschel (her elder by twelve years) to England, where he was an organist and conductor in the elegant city of Bath. He needed her as his housekeeper, but also gave her the opportunity to appear as a soloist in his concerts. Soon she had gained the position of first singer, assumed a managerial role in the chorus and received offers to perform in other cities. She would surely have had a great musical career had she not followed her brother's passion for astronomy. Without doubt this was an unusual family, these Herschels from Hanover, among whom great gifts, even double talents (music and astronomy) were apparently the rule: Alexander, also a musician, served as well as an astronomer in brother Wilhelm's family business of studying the skies.

.. under construction .. Caroline Lucretia Herschel (March 16, 1750 - January 9, 1848) Caroline Herschel was born on March 16, 1750 in Hannover, Germany, as the younger sister of William Herschel . She served in the home of her parents until 1772, when her brother William took her to England. First a housekeeper and singer for the organist William, she became his general assistent, and engaged in astronomy together with William. Most of her astronomical work was helping William by writing down his observations, but besides that work, Caroline was observing on her own, notably with a 27-inch focal length Newtonian 'sweeper.' She discovered a number of deepsky objects in the time of 1783-87, notably an independent discovery of M110 (NGC 205) , the second companion of the Andromeda Galaxy. According to G. Buttmann (1961) , p. 64, Caroline stated to have observed 14 objects until the end of 1783 alone, but the present author is only aware of a total of 13 (of which only 10 or 11 were known at that time). Between 1786 and 1797, she discovered a total of eight comets. .. more to come soon ..

Broer en zus Herschel deden samen belangrijke waarnemingen van vele nevels. Daarnaast werkte Caroline Herschel ook zelfstandig. Ze ontdekte in 1786 en 1788 twee kometen. Caroline Herschel herschreef de catalogus van Flamsteed en voegde bijna zeshonderd sterren toe. Na de dood van haar broer William in 1822 verhuisde Caroline Herschel weer naar Duitsland.

"However long we live, life is short, so I work. And however important man becomes, he is nothing compared to the stars. There are secrets, dear sister, and it is for us to reveal them." Caroline Herschel Caroline Herschel - Celestial Cinderella The story of Caroline Lucretia Hershel is a Cinderella fairy tale. But it wasn’t a prince bearing a glass slipper that changed her life. It was the glass of telescopes and a prince of a brother that saved her from a cindery existence. Caroline, nicknamed Lina, was born in Hanover, Germany on March 16, 1750, the fifth of six children of Isaac Herschel and Anna Ilse Moritzen. Isaac, an oboist and gardener, gave his daughter a rudimentary education, despite his wife's disapproval. Caroline suffered childhood diseases which scarred her for life. At age three, her cheeks were scar-pocked and her left eye was slightly disfigured by Smallpox. Her diminutive height of 4'3" was caused by Typhus at the age of 10. Her father told her she would never marry and her mother's plans for her were that of maid. When Caroline was 22, it was her favorite brother, Freidrich Wilhelm (nicknamed Fritz and later known as William), who rescued her from a dreary existence as their mother's scullery maid. He had moved to England seven years earlier where he had made a life for himself as a musician. On a visit to Hanover, he vowed to save his dear "Lina" and brought her with him upon his return to Bath, England.
